Question 1440p 144hz Monitor suggestions

[kinggaming60]

Hey everyone. So currently I use a BenQ XL2430 144hz monitor and I've been using it as my daily driver for nearly 3+ years now. It's been an amazing monitor and I love it but I definitley think it's time to push to 1440p. I would love to keep the 144hz refresh rate, anything lower I feel would just make me suck at every single game I play, and I currently use a 24' monitor but I've noticed it's incredibly difficult to find a 24' QHD 144hz monitor. Any suggestions under the €300-€350 would be great. If you send any links can you please send either UK links or any other European country links. I appreciate the help boys

Curved or straight?
Type of display?
Preffered brands?
What games do you play?
No matter the game you will have less FPS at 1440p,and its really not worth it if you are playing CSGO or something of that sort.

Ehm preferably straight but willing to give curved a try
IPS is a nice bonus if possible but VA/TN doesn't bother me.
Brands that are kinda known, nothing like crazy unknown, samsung AOC gigabyte all that are ok
Games I play varies a lot, I've been playing a lot of Escape From Tarkov but I do play games like Witcher 3, skyrim etc. Not only CS lol.

I was looking at that monitor and it does look really nice, I'll have to watch a few reviews to make sure 100% it's a good pickup. I wanted to ask a few questions. Is a 8700k and RTX 2070 good enough to get decent frames on 1440p on games like The Witcher 3? I do want to change to Ryzen 5th gen eventually and of course 3000 series RTX, but I'm wondering if my current setup is even playable at 1440p?

 

[Dj0gany]

Yeah,it should delover 60 fps on 1440p

Appreciate that man. That's my biggest concern is just having a really nice monitor but getting crap FPS on the 1440p.

I was looking at more reviews of the Gigabyte monitor and even though it says it has 1ms response times, some benchers have said it's about 7ms, and the B2W and W2B response time is really poor compared to others.

I liked the 32" dell s3220dgf is a great va 165hz monitor. Toms recommended it and I liked it so much I own two now. You can find them on sale for $325 occasionally. Don't know how that translates in euros because you poor europeans always get shafted on tech prices.

Its so sad but so true lol. Honestly sometimes I look at US amazon or Newegg and cry cause the prices for electronics are so good. I've been looking at a lot of monitors like the Samsung G5, Gigabyte, Acer and it seems like every single one has its own little flaw.

I've got my 8700k overclocked to 4.8Ghz, I got an EXTREMELY bad binned chip, it's the highest I can get it, and my GPU is overclocked which does help with performance thankfully.

So the same monitor over here on Amazon is about €450 lol.

Also one thing I REALLY hate about all the monitors, it seems they all use those stupid V shaped feet.

Monitor arm exist for a reason,and that is to eliminate those things that really get in the way of a mouse or a keybaord.
Really annoying.
